It'll be a good game. It's going to be cold with the potential for snow/rain.

Syracuse QB Ryan Nassib holds every single Orange passing record with the exception of career TD's (broke Donovan McNabb's records) and has played some really solid ball for his entire career. Has flown under the radar due to the focus on guys like Luck and Griffin and Barkley and Smith, but he's a pretty solid NFL QB prospect in his own right. He also elevates his game against big name competition and had a very good game against Matt Barkley and USC earlier in the year.

Syracuse will look to pressure Geno and his porous offensive line. The Orange rank 10th nationally in tackles for loss and really try to get after the QB with numerous blitz packages.

West Virginia and Syracuse played last season in the Carrier Dome with Syracuse coming out and executing a near perfect game. Nassib arguably outplayed Smith in that matchup passing for 24/32 for 229 and 4 TDs, while Smith passed for 24/41 with 338 yards and 2 TDs.

It was the last time West Virginia lost in 2011.

Both Smith and Nassib will use this game as a final "real game" day showcase for their talents leading up to the 2013 draft and there will be plenty of NFL scouts in attendence.

I agree. If he struggles the doorknobs are going to bitch even more than they are right now about drafting BPA.

which is why i predict a great showing from smith...and with a month to game plan, a big offensive show from smith/bailey/austin

Hopefully the snow doesn't castrate his play. Then the T'eo crowd will smother us with their reerunation.

That pass at the 6:05 mark was unreal.

I thought he displayed tremendous poise and focus. Notice how he keeps his eyes down the field while being rushed by two defenders?

He doesn't panic or lose focus, he remains calm, sets his eyes where they need to be and rewards himself with a good throw. Good job by him.

Great Video. My favorite throw from Geno was this year against Marshall late in the 4th qtr. He throws a corner fade for a TD to Bailey. Just amazing touch and accuracy on his throws

Here's to hoping Jags win at noon tomorrow so I can cheer for the Chiefs knowing we've got Geno all but locked up.

The Alex Smith comparisons aren't as bad as some of you are making them out to be. Smith was legit coming out and never got me change help in SF. I do think he has a better arm than Alex Smith though...

that's his best quality, imo...and one you can't teach

I think sac hit on it earlier.

Alex Smith just doesn't have the arm to take the top off the defense.

With Harbaugh, he became an efficient, reliable game manager, but one that limits your passing game.

But game manager is his ceiling.

Geno Smith's ceiling is elite QB.

Don't forget his accuracy throwing deep, either. And it's not just accuracy on the deep ball, but his accuracy while on the move throwing deep. There are numerous NFL QB's that would love to have that kind of accuracy in their games right now.

The kid is just plain badass, and fun to watch.

No. We beat Denver and it will be look how we ended the season and played hard till the end. Romeo and Pioli stay.

We need to finish this thing

Seriously?

The Chiefs are 2-13 with fans revolting. The decision with Pioli and Crennel has already been made, whatever decision that is.

This.

We all just hope it's the correct decision.
